This was our first trip to Jamaica and we wanted it to be nice. Since this resort is "Adult Only", my fiance and I figured that it should be nice and relaxing so we booked it. When we first got the the resort the concierge quickly came up to us, grabbed our bags and sat us in the bar area.... More

I had done my research, but was still pleasantly surprised at how much my husband and I enjoyed this resort. Wonderful people, staff and location. Interesting and changing daily activities. The food was delicious and the cocktails, though some a bit sugary, were phenomenol. Total relaxation and fun for a very fair price for everything you get. The only downside... More

The Jewel was a beautiful resort with a super friendly staff. Our room was gorgeous, just like the pictures show. I loved the intimacy and smallness of the resort. We never had a problem getting a chair by the beach or pool. The staff was awesome! Everything was literally "no problem man." The entertainment staff was great. We loved trivia... More

I was skeptical at first with the resort being an hour and a half from the airport, but it only added to the experience! We got on a charter bus with quite a few other people and were driven from Montego Bay to Ocho Rios. No stops were made, but you could buy water or Red Strip right there on... More

My husband and I just spent a week at the Jewel, celebrating his birthday. We've stayed next door at the Riu 3 times and were never impressed with the large resort. The Jewel received many accolades on various review boards, inclusive of this one and we decided to book it for this trip. This review is more of a comparison... More
